And Now For Something Completely New – At least for me!

As
you know, I keep struggling away with producing meatloaf. This time I made
one using half turkey mince (ground turkey) and half pork mince. I have never cooked turkey before – amazing I
know! And certainly have never used
turkey mince. But there it was in the
supermarket and it was even on special!

I
mixed up the mince with some breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper, a squirt of tomato
sauce (ketchup), some grated cheese and a sprinkle of tarragon. I tried to mix it while not over working
it. I left it in the loaf tin to chill
in the fridge.

Then
turned it out onto the baking dish and topped it with a little more grated
cheese and knobs of butter.

Baked
at a moderate temperature for 45 minutes.
It was a good experiment – lighter than the meatloaves I have made with
ground beef and the hint of tarragon was good with it.
